Facebook had promised to end racist advertising on their site in February this year

They excluded African Americans, mothers of high school children, people interested in wheelchair ramps, Jews, and Spanish speakers. Other ads sought to exclude potential renters “interested in Islam, Sunni Islam and Shia Islam”.

Every ad was approved within minutes.

The expose comes a year after ProPublica first revealed it had managed to buy adverts on Facebook that discriminated racially.
